Will it or wont it Genral Strike looming

[lazydog]

Trouble is in this economic climate no-one really wants to take the reins,otherwise there would be a vote of no confidence in this shower of shitegovernment.
But I do worry there might be mobs in the streets this summer again and that wont have anything to do with politics,just a very frustrated youth with no direction and nothing to loose.

I think that since Thatcher crushed the unions, they just dont have the stomach to do anything

The sooner this pathetic bunch are kicked out the better............just my personal view

Plus the fact most of the population are living beyond their means and many cannot afford to go on strike and lose days far less weeks of wages or they will sink.

All the years of easy credit and encouraging people to buy now pay later mentality has not done the country any favours.

I agree with you Dolly, but to be honest i don't think it was this government that caused that, nor the handout and not have to work expectation, and made parents afraid to spank their children. That was Labour. Not a fan of this government either, but they are picking up the pieces that labour left,,,,,,,,,,, To be honest they are all as bad as each other, when the party ends, you look around and you are still standing in the shit.

Lenny, did you mean something like a dildo? They're great, should try it. 

Got to agree this government were handed a shi*ty stick from Labour but the Torries did the same when Thatcher was in, she sold off all the countries assets to make "the man in the street" a home owner and shareholder, now we are paying through our ar*ehole for gas, electricity etc cause they are all owned by foreign countries.

People who have lived in the family home all their life are having to pay bedroom taxes because all the good council houses were sold for a fraction of their worth and now most councils are only left with high rise flats and houses in undesireable areas, so can no longer house families.

All the parties are as bad as each other in my opinion

The riots last year are just a taste of things to come I fear , people have still got fight left in them , it won't take much to ignite the flames and for the population to say enoughs enough ......somethings very wrong when record numbers of the elderly are dying in this cold spell yet British Gas execs help themselves to a £16 million pound bonus pot , there are plenty of stories like this coming out everday whilst the media try to deflect attention and focus on the unemployed being the problem ... resentment will turn to anger eventually and then the sh*ts gonna hit the fan

Just the point I was making British Gas private company.... everybody were queuing up to buy under priced shares when they sold it off, unfortunatly most were bought by people who had money anyway now we are all paying the price because the government have absolutley no say in the wholesale price of oil and gas etc

Would also be interesting to see how many of the unemployed were caused by direct and indirect privatisation of public companies over the years....Private companies NEED to make profit to keep the shareholders happy....Ask any company what their biggest overhead is and I bet most will say LABOUR

I remember the days of Thatcher, and was a part of many strikes she brought out the Bill that it was unlawful to strike,
she demoralized the union's. Most folk nowadays think the worker's don't want to strike but the union's hands are tied.
A union has to hold a ballot box before they can go on strike and they have to give notice when the strike takes place.

I will confess I would like to call myself a revolutionist, but unfortunately standing on your own you are nothing but a babbling fool, however in numbers people unite and when people unite they can change.

I am sorry but nothing in life will change unless you make it change, life does not change for you nor does it adapt to you, YOU adapt/change to life to make it suit. I will be dammed if my children end up like half of the UK, and It starts when they are YOUNG to ensure they don't end up like another lost generation.

Blame the governments, But how about the parents that allowed their children to get out of hand? You are the generations that brought us up, you are the generations that fought against punishment at school and aided the country into the nanny nation we are.

I tell you TWO things that would have fixed this mess with the youth.

1st, Punishment at school, put yourself out of line big time then you deserve a cane.

2nd NATIONAL SERVICE, mandatory 12 months national service, Not fighting roles, but teach people discipline and most importantly respect (and for once self respect).

[EDIT TO ADD].

Unions should not have to give notice, what are the goverment going to do? arrest thousands of people?, send the army on the streets? (that I would not be suprised over).

Grow a back bone and stand up for your rights, if you wish to strike why should you give the company/organization in question notice?, again its another way of "pussyfooting" around the problem rather than saying NO enough is enough and NO I will not bow to your rules. (PS: As Anarchist as that sounds, RULES is meant as the control the powers that be put there solely for the purpose of stopping people like us from saying NO)

agree with the above you can shove so far before it does go bang ,Gov know it we know it ,hence when they know there near to the tipping point they back off,besides all these other riots demos ,petrol poll tax,shocked them and most of the toffee nosed lot,its going to come soon,pressure across the whole EU has reached breaching point,

As for the credit mentioned part its gone beyond that,people are struggling full stop period as we all know things have to fall and stabalise to an affordable limit,but here and the Eu wont allow it ,keeping things artificialy high ie stagnant,so we wont recover for many many years,take a look back at past recessions for those that can remember,what happened

Might as well post this in here as it is relative.
Daily Fail - Mick Philpott product of the welfare state ie stereotype the poor and umemployes as child killers now....Marvellous

George Osborne... Parks in a disbaled bay to go get Maccy Ds for lunch... well played George. Afterall, you are far more important aren't you?

Now watching lunchtime news. 3 rbs bosses (2 of them lords) up for being so bad at their jobs they should be banned for life. WOW... doesn't stop them keeping all the millions in bonuses and pension though eh? Mick Philpott product of the welfare state...so what are these toffee nosed Eton/ Harrow educated thieves and fraudsters a product of???...
They should have all their money taken away, put into the countrys' coffers and then make them go live on the £53 a week their privately educated mate an Duncan Smith reckons is possible.

Ahhhhhhhhhh i feel so much better now.
